The temperature was dropping, but Georgia’s housing market remained hot in October, according to the Georgia Association of Realtors’ October Housing Indicators Report.

Sales across the state were up 10% from a year ago, while inventory plummeted 40.5%.

Here’s a closer look at the numbers:

  • New listings up 1% to 16,163
  • Pending sales down 23% to 14,068
  • Closed sales up 21% to 14,476
  • Inventory down 41% to 25,956 units
  • Median sales price down 17% to $266,000
  • Average sales price up 19% to $320,970
  • Days on market down 19% to 43 days
  • Months’ supply of inventory down 45.9% to two months

The report also noted that there was a stark contrast between single-family home sales and condo sales, along with properties under $199,000. “Pending sales were down for all properties priced at $199,000 and below, but increased above the $200,000 price point,” the report noted.

  • $124,999 or less – down 11%
  • $125,000 – $199,999 – down 10%
